Type: Software tool, SimulationLanguage: EnglishAuthor: GNUDescription: GNU Octave is a high-level interpreted language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides capabilities for the numerical solution of linear and nonlinear problems, and for performing other numerical experiments. It also provides extensive graphics capabilities for data visualization and manipulation. Octave is normally used through its interactive command line interface, but it can also be used to write non-interactive programs. The Octave language is quite similar to Matlab so that most programs are easily portable. Octave is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License.

Type: Virtual labLanguage: EnglishAuthor: Edward Kamen, Bonnie Heck (Georgia Institute of Technology)Description: Applets designed as an aid to the study of certain aspects of the theory of continuous and discrete signals and systems (Fourier transform, convolution, filtering, sampling, aliasing, etc.) explained in the book Signal and Sytems. Also there are experiments for control theory like poles placement, root locus, or relation between frequency an time.

Type: Virtual LabLanguage: EnglishAuthor: Bill Messner (U. Carnegie Mellon), Dawn Tilbury (U. of Michigan) Rick Hill (U Detroit-Mercy), and many students.Description: Control Tutorials for MATLAB and Simulink (CTMS) are designed to help you learn how to use MATLAB and Simulink for the analysis and design of automatic control systems. They cover the basics of MATLAB and Simulink and introduce the most common classical and modern control design techniques.
